blueingreenland Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 This is the bye week for us. I was kind of hoping we would be bringing in some NFL cuts. Anyone hear of anything? We could use a DB and a LB. Saskatchewan and Edmonton have both improved their teams in the past week or two. I hope we are still looking at improvements. Any thoughts?

wbbfan Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 The type of cuts we will probably bring in (cfl rookies) often take a little bit longer to come down. Around the league weve seen a couple guys come back from Nfl try outs who have been up here and had an impact. Those guys seem imo to be less likely to sit on the couch waiting for an nfl team to call. They understand the best chance to get back to the nfl after a TC is to play up here. Once youre more then like 2 years out of college your chances of getting picked up after camp / late camp drop a lot. Especially if you dont have any tape. It seems like our modus operandi is when the nfl camps close, prs expand we bring in a bunch of raw young guys for looks. We dont really seem to air lift guys in to come and play. Its like early auditions for camp next year. If some one comes in and plays like poop or jeffcoat in practice they will probably get a look if the roster presents a chance. But short of that (and that is exceedingly rare) a cfl rookie isnt likely to be air lifted and play past the mid way point. The no contact practices could hurt those guys too. When the PR expands and teams cycle in young talent from down south itll be a lot harder to evaluate them with out practice reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Well last i checked we dont have anyone on a NFL tryout.. Seems most CFL guys just sign back with their old team... If Mulumba signs... Thats cool. If not, i wouldn't expect much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and only kind of with guys like mulumba/gra vs the guys that have been trickling back the last couple weeks to other teams. 1 hour ago, Mr Dee said: Was he cut? With wild out I would certianly take him back in that spot. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think we fits in the middle well, especially in our system. But would love to have him back in his original position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALuCsRED Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 There will be a new jacket hanging in the coaches office. I wonder if O'Shea wears a blazer on the sidelines for the rest of the year. blue_gold_84, kelownabomberfan and Noeller 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALuCsRED Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 Too bad Khalil wasn't a DB. A couple more dBs of Bass and we'd guarantee IGF the title of loudest stadium. Honestly, I'm still impressed by how much I saw Khalil's Dad in the stands for most of the games. It's like the first chapter of California fan base (before Scott and Gregory Mortland ). blue_gold_84 and wbbfan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 If Walters' history is any indication, there will be no significant additions to the lineup before the end of the season, so do not hold your breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe that he's still only 27 in his prime, seems like a long time ago he played for the Bombers, no way he's coming here but sure would be a nice add.
